Soybean On-Farm Trialing (OFT) Program

The North Carolina Soybean On-Farm Trialing (OFT) Program was initiated in 2020 as a collaborative effort between N.C. Cooperative Extension and the NC Soybean Producers Association. This program leverages the talent and resources that N.C. Cooperative Extension has at the local level to conduct on-farm research in strip trials that synergizes research being conducted in small plots by the NC State Soybean Extension program. This program amplifies the reach of the soybean checkoff by providing more touch points across rural North Carolina. Annually, the program runs on-farm research trials that compliment the research being conducted in small-plot across the state. Protocols and reports from previous and ongoing soybean OFT trials are available below.
